Wildflower |
| In a tenement near the Henry Hudson River |
| From my favorite spot on a rusting fire escape |
| I would look below. |
| And see Mario |
| Braving the ferocious dandelions |
| Mario, our fearless superintendent |
| Kept the garden green, despite the parkway smog |
| But the flowering weeds |
| Their fates decreed |
| Pulled, to keep his rosebush from dying |
| Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed |
| Something strong was pulling at my head |
| Pulling at my heart |
| Wild flower, growing in all the wrong places |
| Wild flower, so lonely? |
| neath that lovely rose bush |
| Proper garden’s nightmare, queen of opened fields |
| Tell me, who will love this wildflower |
| For exactly what she is? |
| Years passed by, we left that red brick building |
| Left Mario behind |
| For a brand new house |
| But my dark brown skin |
| On the white washed walls within |
| Stood out, so it’d get me up and cryin' |
| My growing pains had many rooms to fill, then |
| Mother never know |
| .Had a garden to keep clean |
| While there was NY grease |
| On her young flower from the Middle East |
| She was busy pulling dendelions |
| Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed |
| Something strong was pulling at my head |
| Pulling at my heart |
| Wild flower, growing in all the wrong places |
| Wild flower, so lowly? |
| neath that lovely rosebush |
| Proper garden’s nightmare, queen of opened fields |
| Tell me, who will love this wildflower |
| For exactly what she is? |
